Re: Ex RNZAF Defender
I think I used a 2.5 inch exhaust, you don't need much for a muffler. Remember to use a flexijoint near the turbo. I did this in the early nineties .

You also need an extra big exhaust. Cheers, the unit I have should do the trick, any recommendation on bore size of exhaust ...
